Keep On Trying....

Ever tried? Ever failed? No matter. Try again.

Good Morning Sister W.W.F.F.,
Weigh-in day is upon us yet again. We all know how hard it can be to face that scale each week. Sometimes we know we have had a really good week, we have tracked, we have eaten by the book, we have gotten in our activity, we have done everything that should make that little metal box we step on, show just how great our efforts have been.
  • Then we have that week where we weighed in on Saturday, decided that ''ok, the weekend is mine, and I am going to enjoy it!" The enjoying part, as a rule is surrounded by the thoughts of ''what foods shall I indulge in?" Nothing wrong doing this, nothing at all, however, just make sure you can and do get yourself back on track after the weekend. Otherwise, come the next weigh-in your going to be kicking yourself, calling yourself the world's worst failure, and remember, ''this is the NO NEGATIVE talk zone." Then we have those thoughts of just throwing up our hands and never, ever trying again. Sound familiar?
We have all been there, done that, and have a few t-shirts to prove it. The good things I find is knowing at least the 46 people that I sent my early morning, daily e-mail too, some have tried, some have failed but we all keep going on. Here is the secret too all of this................You are not a failure until you decide to never try again........None of us should ever think of ourselves as being a failure, we are like the mighty oak tree standing strong during the storms of life. We may bend and we may sway, but it takes a lot too actually break us.
So if your reading this, and have had or are having the thoughts of ''I should just give up, I'm not working this program as I should ." Before you give up, stand back and look at how far you have come, NOT have far you still have to go.
Wishing Everyone A great Day,
Much Love,
Joan
